Välilehtipalkki

Välilehtipalkki, often translated as tab bar or tab strip, is a graphical user interface element that displays a series of tabs, each representing a different document, window, or section within an application. This allows users to switch between multiple open items without needing to open and close separate windows. Typically, each tab in a välilehtipalkki displays a title or icon to identify its content. Clicking on a tab brings its corresponding content to the forefront, making it active and visible. This design is widely used in web browsers, file managers, and various productivity software to manage multiple tasks or data sets efficiently. The välilehtipalkki can usually be customized, with options to reorder tabs, close them individually, or sometimes group them. Its primary purpose is to enhance user experience by providing a clear and organized way to navigate and manage multiple active elements within a single application window, reducing clutter and improving workflow. The concept aims to simulate the physical act of flipping through separate pages or documents, offering a familiar and intuitive interaction model.
